Siri, Who Am I? by Sam Tschida
3.0
Siri, Who Am I? is a rom-com starring a 20-something woman with a case of amnesia.
After waking up from a coma, Mia doesn't remember anything about her own life except what she can learn from her phone. She learns her own name after asking Siri who she is. Her wallet is missing, she's wearing a yellow Prada dress and has a cool haircut. She assumes she is rich because of all of this evidence. She is seemingly all alone. No one has shown up at the hospital to visit or release her. The hospital just lets her out and she uses her instagram feed to figure out where she lives. She winds up at a nice duplex on Ocean Boulevard in Laguna Beach. There is a house sitter, Max, there and he tells her the house belongs to a rich chocolatier. Max and Mia work together to try to figure out exactly who Mia is.
Okay, this was kind of fun. It was definitely a quick and easy read. I had to really suspend disbelief that the hospital would release a patient who didn't remember who they were out into the wild and that they wouldn't get the police or social workers or someone involved. Also, based on WHERE she received her head injury, you would think someone there would've supplied her identifying information when they brought her to the hospital. OK, i need to stop overanalyzing this. If you suspend disbelief about all that stuff, it is an entertaining read as you follow Mia along on all her foibles and her resolution to make herself a better person when she uncovers things she doesn't like about her previous life.
